Extinguishant Control Panel Product Overview
Designed and manufactured to the highest standards in a
quality controlled environment and with UL and FM approvals,
the Sigma A-XT releasing panel offers outstanding value and
performance for all small to medium fixed firefighting
installations.

With three initiation circuits as standard, release can be

configured to activate from any combination of detection zone
inputs to allow (among other combinations) any two from three
type activations such as would be required for detection in
ceiling void, room and floor void applications.
The extensive configuration options of the Sigma A-XT allow the
functionality of the system to be extensively modified.
The panel contains a large LED display to enable easy
configuration and control which also displays the time
remaining until release for added user safety.
The countdown timer is duplicated on up to seven remote status
units to provide local indication of the system status.

Compatible with I.S. barriers With all of the electronics mounted on a single, easily
Non-latching zone input option to removable, steel plate Sigma A-XT panels are both robust and
receive signals from other systems such easy to install.
